I guess there are some other conditions? Such as that you should be able to sleep in it without it causing accidents per distance driven, or only a few accidents, or only a few fatal accidents. If not, my bed also classifies as a self-drivi

Yeah, such a bummer that is probably not real! I like the panspermia hypothesis. I guess most can be explained by the quadcopter (or just wind) if they use that to make pictures. There's a lot of dirt/dust/sand that it will m

It would be great to have some statistics on who's using the autopilot and for how long. I myself am driving one for a year now and it's so often the Tesla suddenly breaks (at least once in a trip) because it thinks that's on

The problem is that React might not exist over a couple of years. I program for decades. Most of my old stuff using frameworks - say for example, Angular or Jekyll - doesn't work anymore. If I update I end up in a dependency hell that&

Good point about it not being random over sequences. Would be fun to find a method that would obey more constraints and requires fewer flips than TH, HT from the other comment.

What about just after the unfair coin sequence toggling every even position? HTHHTHHTTHHH HHHTTTHHTTHT Should be fair. Though there is order now when the coin was unfair.

Real fur is regretfully not always the most expensive option. Hopefully, it's a side effect of diseases that we will be starting to think this all over though. Technologically, I don't think there's much to be done here. Fake

Yesterday I checked around how I could contribute to the bluez stack. The communication seems to be at #bluez on freenode, but I didn't jump in yet. I don't know the ethics here and there were no messages in the channel. I think c

This is not just about loss aversion. What if you give your family and friends now such an opportunity. Some of them will win some of them lose. It's quite hard emotionally I guess. To see some of them who just by pure chance got rich

The topology one I mentioned is from Jack Nathan. I also liked the lectures on convex optimization by Stephen Boyd a lot. Steve Brunton on Fourier analysis. It's all very subjective of course. Andrew Ng would be mentioned by most and I

Watch challenging clips or lectures. I had feedback on my thesis on nonparametric Bayesian methods and started two days ago watching lectures on topology and convergence. It somehow unlocked concepts that made it much easier to grog the fee

Interesting discussion. If it's about "cleaning up" before committing, a single script that moves files back and forth from project root to a .config path might also be an option...

For me the mindset means a lot of different things. 1. Go beyond what people tell you. Discover your own truth. 2. The love for tinkering. 3. The idea that what you bought is your own and you can do anything with it. 4. To use something in

Nice, what did you do and how much time did it take? I've been hesitating to contribute but it would be great to read a blog post of someone just starting to contribute to see what it takes! It might be enough to get over the fear.

They might lose landing rights. That's often enough reason to keep flying, even with empty planes.

I don't like them. However my brother is paying applicants for the home coding test. I think that's different. Nothing beats (for me) an online track record.

Ha, this is my brother. He's a digital nomad large part of the year. Plenty of "vacations"... He's a hard worker though. Props to you, brother! :-)

That would define "meaning" only as something that can be imposed by an entity outside of yourself. Someone can tell you your life has a lot of meaning... but what does that mean to you. It's vacuous if you don't think t

I was thinking the same: "What a positive post!" Keep it going! A lot of times we keep positive feedback for ourselves, or close friends, but we don't share it back online. It means a lot about you as a person that you think

I have been raised extremely religious and I completely understand obsession by the search for alien life. In some way it would "ground" at once my entire struggle to get out of this (human) religion. Sure, you can imagine an adap

What happens if there are multiple 3D or 4D objects? Do we then need an attention mechanism as well? Or is there some topology where a "where vs what" pathway emerges naturally?
